PPA 320
Howdy!For this week's simple PPA Challenge sketch (click here to see the sketch and other entries), I decided to attempt a masculine card.
I started with a Very Vanilla A2 card base and added a piece of Moroccan DSP to cover the whole front. This particular piece has shades of Cajun Craze, plus Very Vanilla and dots of Emerald Envy.
So, I used a scrap of Emerald Envy cardstock that I dry embossed with the Petal Burst folder (which seems to be my go-to lately) and my Big Shot on the right side of the card front. I used Fast Fuse for this. I highly recommend a super sticky adhesive for this, because the added texture makes it resistant to staying put.
Next, I stamped my sentiment from Flourishing Phrases in Emerald Envy on a scrap of Very Vanilla that I flagged on the end (try using the Banner Triple Punch). Finally, I popped this up with dimensionals.
Thanks for visiting!
You did a great job with your card. I like how you matched the dots of the background paper with the sentiment and side embossed strip. Very nice. victoryfirst.blogspot.com
